Magnifying your world

The other day, one of my architect friend was complaining to me that it is difficult to see the wording on the screen especially since he had to check the AutoCAD drawing for errors. I browse around the internet and found the following application to be particularly useful for his purpose.

Magnifying Glass Pro from Workers Collection is a nifty tool that will magnifying a portion of the screen while your application is still running. Some people may argue that Window Vista has a free magnifying glass function but it is quite cumbersome. You may also purchase a mouse that come with an extra magnifying function button. The only thing is that I found that most often than not, the cursor within the magnifying glass activated by mouse is not enlarged.

You may install Magnifying Glass Pro from the following site: http://www.workerscollection.com/wcollect/english/html/mg_pro.html. You may download a 30 days trial version to test it out. The purchase price is USD 24.95.

Once the application is activated, a magnifying glass will appear that can be move around anywhere to magnigy any area on screen. CTRL-G will toggle the activation of the magnifying glass.

After installing this nifty tool, my friend no longer need to squint his eye to check drawing anymore!
